Michael Norman is passionate about reading and writing mysteries, so he is pleased to announce the publication of his fourth novel, Skeleton Picnic. In this book, Michael takes readers into the murky world of people who illegally loot Anasazi and Fremont Indian sites for ancient artifacts. When a prominent Kanab, Utah, couple go missing from a weekend “skeleton picnic” ( a pot hunting trip), local Sheriff Charley Sutter turns to Bureau of Land Management Law Enforcement Ranger J.D. Books for help. Skeleton Picnic is the second J.D. Books novel, following the 2010 release of On Deadly Ground.

Michael’s other two novels, The Commission, and Silent Witness, featured Sam Kincaid, Chief of the Special Investigations Branch (SIB) of Utah Department of Corrections. For Sam Kincaid fans, Michael wants you to know that he is currently hard at work on a new Sam Kincaid mystery, Slow Burn. Stay tuned.
